Alabama recorded 5 physician deactivations in the NPI registry during the week of Aug. 31 through Sept. 6, 2026, representing 3% of the national total. The records include 4 individuals and 1 organization. NPI deactivation is an administrative status change in the federal registry and does not by itself indicate a license action or confirm that a provider has stopped practicing.
Credentials
Pediatrics was the most frequently listed retired taxonomy, with 2 records, or 40% of Alabama’s total. Radiation Oncology, Internal Medicine and Family Medicine each accounted for 1 record, or 20% apiece. The credential mix therefore spans primary care, pediatrics and a specialty field, with no single taxonomy other than Pediatrics appearing more than once.
City Distribution
The records were distributed across Livingston, Birmingham, Gadsden, Auburn and Mobile, with 1 deactivation listed in each city. Four of the cities correspond to individual records, while Mobile is associated with the organization in the update. The even city distribution does not show a concentration in one Alabama location or a cluster limited to one credential group. CMS generally removes names, addresses and taxonomies from deactivated records, although Hipa.ai retains names from public CMS files captured before deactivation.
Alabama’s weekly snapshot records 5 administrative NPI status changes across 5 cities, divided between individual and organizational records.
